Reviews

Just got done with the lower kit install. Lower is an 80percentarms.com lower - black anodized, 6061 billet aluminum that I also just finished. Mated it to a PSA midlength MOE upper. No problems at all! Haven't had a chance to give it a try at the range yet, but anticipating it BIGLY!;-}

The safety could be better, minus 1 star (doesn't have that snappy positive feel), but let's be honest, we all usually switch out the safety for a ambi-3rd party safety anyways.

The EPT trigger is a "Ok, that's a little better than mil-spec" trigger. A little love with a japanese 6000 grit whetstone and some nagura and it becomes a truly fantastic mil-spec trigger. As we all know, a mil-spec trigger can only get so good before going to Geissele, Larue, or Timney.

I also have several Geissele triggers (SSA-E and SSP). The EPT trigger is definitely a great/fantastic compromise when one is low on the cash flow.

The other lower parts are just as good as any other I have worked with... BCM & ALG Defense included. The worst LPK I have ever used was from Black Rain.

A little lithium grease on the buffer spring quiets the boing/scraping sound down quite a bit and smooths out charging action.

Really love the EPT trigger. I added the JP Enterprises spring set that others on here recommended and after lubrication, the trigger is simply beautiful. I can't believe how good it feels for essentially a $40 fire control group and I've only put about 50 rounds through it. Can't wait to see how it feels as it breaks in.

Rest of the kit was nicely packaged in separate pouches which made installation nice as I didn't have to worry about springs or detents wandering away. Just keep each package closed until you move to that piece and you HOPEFULLY won't lose anything.

My safety selector is a little tight - that's the only reduction in stars and if I could, this would be 4.5 to 4.75 stars. I don't mind so much as I'm going to likely put a short throw 45* selector on it soon. All in all, get this kit and if you want a nice trigger, grab the JP Enterprises spring set to go along with it.

If you want to assemble your own AR.....than look no further for the lower parts I have found that this is one of the best.....so far it has the best enhanced milspectrigger I have found.....and the best value for the contents!

I am very happy and pleased with the quality and price of this product. Originally I ordered a complete set of MOE lower build kit and stock but I change my mind. I called palmetto a couple of days after and told them that I would like to cancel my order and would like to order the CTR EPT lower build kit instead. The customer service representative is very helpful and cancelled my order. I will definitely order again and will recommend Palmetto to all my friends.

First order through PSA and could not be happier. Easy ordering process and quick delivery of 4 days. Ordered on a Weds and received on a Sat. Install was easier after watching many a you tube video on install process. Parts were all there and just waiting to "pull the trigger" on ordering the complete upper.

Like some of the above reviews this is more about PSA than the hardware (which is great). Ordered late Sunday night 2/19/17...had it Thursday the 23rd. You can not beat the price and when you can catch it with Free Shipping boom done deal. I have been scouring various gun shows in the South Eastern to Mid Michigan areas and there is nothing close to this set up for the $$$$'s. Thanks PSA.

PSA killing the competition yet again. Complete build kit for a stripped lower all in one so no need to piece everything together and saving you money for the rest of the build. Magpul CTR stock and MOE pistol grip alone make this a great deal retail on these alone is $80 combined. EPT trigger is a nice bouns as well. All parts are in the kit nothing missing. Shipping was quick which is good for PSA since shipping can be on the slow side. Get this kit for your next build. Wish I knew about these when I built my first AR.

I'm quit pleased with this kitthe polished triger is sweeet mine had a 7 lb pull so I got a different spring set and now it's 4.5lb and smooth as silk.the MOE grip and stock are just what you'd expectthe mil spec buffer tube are good quality

the EPT trigger is nicely polished still 7+ lbs pull though I swapped the springs from an Anderson trigger that pulls 6 lbs and good to go now smooth pull.Moe grips are awesome.CTR stock even with the lock is wobbely I'm not impressed with it at all. comes with the 1/4" pad.the buffer tube is shortest available but is good quality. spring is springy buffer is well buffery.the Moe trigger guard is good too.over all this is a good kit but I'll probably not buy another.

AND if you order from Palmeto be prepared to wait I've heard of next day shipping from them but for me it took 5 days before it left their door.I did find this info in the FAQ after I placed my second order.

Got a few set @ $129 when it was on sale. Installed it on Aero Precision and Franklin Armory lower. I was heavily impressed compared to my PSA polished trigger I already have on my other Aero Precision lower. I also added the JP 3.5T trigger springs set with this PSA CTR EPT set .. shoots real nice. Even my shooting buddy liked this setup. Highly recommend this set.

I couldn't see myself wanting to dish out $200+ for a Giselle trigger.

I ordered this kit for my first AR build. I had purchased my lower locally. After reading reviews on this kit and what it consisted of I jumped on it. It fits wonderfully into my ATI hybrid lower. Only issue i had was that I didn't get a tracking number until the day before it arrived 6 days after I placed my order. And at that point I had to ask for it.

This is more about Palmetto State's Service than the product itself as I have not installed it yet.

I ordered it on Sunday night for $129 and it was at my door at Noon on Thursday. Everything that was described was in the package. Complete EPT LPK plus Magpul CTR stock and grip. I love this stock. The additional "retention" lock works perfectly and there is no "wobble" or play in the stock when activated. I can't wait to get it all together in my lower.

Palmetto has fantastic build kits. All the furniture I wanted for about $50 cheaper than buying those parts separately. The polished trigger is a very nice addition as well honestly I didnt realize it was included when I bought the kit. Its super smooth I'm guessing it's probably a full 7# pull though. But its improved enough I don't think I need to replace it with a far more expensive Geissele. I have a Geissele SSA and a G2S-E in two of my other lowers. Those are without a doubt better triggers and if you want to spend the money do it you won't regret it. But PSA's polished trigger was a very surprising extra that made this kit 5 stars for me.

Worth mentioning though is the front pivot pin in my kit is to large measuring 0.252 to large to force into my lower. I'm guessing its just extra think anodizing but I've email Palmetto about a replacement. Palmetto is pretty good at taking care of its customers.

Magpul CTR stock with the enhanced polished trigger group is a great start to a psa great build. The CTR is a very nice upgrade over the classic. The EPT group is a clean crisp just under 6lb pull with a short reset.

I haven't received this yet but I'm very familiar with the product and I can say this is a great deal!! I got it on sale for $129 which was what I was going to pay for the standard kit with an MOE stock and the non premium trigger group! Great deal!

Ordered this the moment the 4th of July sale started at PSA and i can't wait to get it. As long as all pieces come with the order it is an incredible value for the money. A CTR lower build kit is always costly and the small addition of polishing the trigger + free shipping is too good a deal to pass up. If you need a lower build kit don't hesitate to pull the trigger on this! In fact you could probably sell or trade this to a friend for more if you decide to go a different route
